Bourne v. Goodyear

Bourne v. Goodyear
Supreme Court of the United States · Decided April 25, 1870
76 U.S. 811; 19 L. Ed. 786; 9 Wall. 811; 1869 U.S. LEXIS 1035 (United States Reports)

Bourne v. Goodyear

Opinion

The CHIEF JUSTICE

delivered the opinion of the court.

The extension having expired before the bill was filed, there is no equity to support the application to set it aside. The extension has ceased to be of any effect, and there remains nothing which can be the subject of a suit. The demurrer to the bill, therefore, must be sustained, and the decree of the Circuit Court by which the bill was dismissed must be

Affirmed.
